Show Notes

BG (R) Halstead shares her experiences through the breadth and depth of her career. A woman who spent the majority of her career as a “first,” Becky is a true pioneer for gender integration. Not only did she break through glass ceilings herself, she took part in gender integration efforts that paved the way for the repeal of the combat exclusion policy. Her example reminds us all to never give up and to embrace challenges with humor. 

Becky is an author and a leader in her community. You can find her book, “24/7: The First Person You Must Lead Is You (Steadfast Leadership Series)” wherever books are sold. Her website is https://www.beckyhalstead.com/ where you can read more about her inspirational leadership speaking series.
